about

This is a song about trinkets.

lyrics

Oh, I was dumb but you knew I was right
I'll hold the cough to keep the mystery alive
That you were God, but you were the delight

Was it a rock or a key
Was it a cylinder or ring
What were you

When I saw you it was all a-light grey
And when I fell you fell the other way
And all of this cost you time

Oh the time, was it played back
Or was it forward moving numbers on a door
Or was it horses, or maybe shower floors
How many numbers do you adore

Come out to see but don't be leery of the light
You gave me droughts of heavy fog to set me right
And then came crashing, boat over house of light

Through the window, I considered you a sleight
My elder loliflower gone before the light
Fell in on noontide and gave me cups of life

Was it a rock or a key
Was it a cylinder or a ring
What were you

Oh, this time was it played back
Or was it forward moving numbers on a door
Oh was it horses, maybe shower floors
How many numbers do you adore
